    Yes when i worked on tracky, one Saturday i got a nice Job
    yake the Royston Supporters to Oakwell, (GREAT) they were playing Sunderland at home
    the day started very Cold, overcast, and snowy looking
    what a miserable day for footy, it never brightened up it got even worse
    NoFlood lihts them days
    it was even to cole to snow
    Kick off time even worse, crowd about 2050
    every one round the ground took cover ,where they could
    nobody at spion kop end
    second half Sunder land were attackin kop end, score 0 0
    it statred to snow reluctanley,
    we got to the last 20 mins,
    Cloughie scored, noone was sure
    the crowd arguing , it was a goal, no it wasnt,
    the players trooped to he centre
    and went back and scored again
    they trooped back to te centre
    , more miserable arguin in the crow, i tell thee it wot a goal
    back they went and Clougie got a third
    i was at pontyend
    it was so dull so cold, the lights in the old stand were blinding
    the game ended to this day i couldnt tell you if 22 players walked, and even Brian Clough had to look in the sunday papers, to see if he had a hat trick
    i drove to Royston lads and Lasses, home
    and idid not get another run ,until i was given the Las Bus to ARDSLEY
    i got to Kendry, and heard a tap on my cab door
    it was the conductor, telling me people would not pay the fare,
    i went to see a load of people, well Peed, i said hey you lot pay or Sing,
    i started singing ILKLEY MOOR BAHT at
    i got em all home , stillsining
    who wants to be a buws driver
    i had to go to Korea first, watch it now
    theres still Afghan

    Love your stories Bob. I read Clough's autobiography. He said he was an even better player than he was a manager. Good old big'ead

    No idea. Definitely not at work, though. Honest.
    Nice to see you back Bob. My dad still says Cloughie was best centre forward he ever saw.
